“This is soo cool! Mom, Dad can I try it?”
“No” they said. “Don’t do it.”
“You will get hurt”
“You will break something”
“You will not be able to do it”
Once, twice, thrice,
It happened many times
After a while I stopped asking
Because whenever I came across
Something new, fun
It was my mind who said “don’t”
“You will never be able to do it.”

SMiLes Dear Vrunda in Many
Ways Fortunate As my Mother
Never Really Put Forth Any expectations
of Who She Felt i Could or Could Not Be or Do…
And my Father Left
Early And Rarely
Visited So His
Desire For me
To Be Who He Wanted me
To Be Was Really Never An
Issue for Someone Absent in one’s Life…
True in this Case Him Leaving At 3 Likely Truly
Set me
Free For Life
Harder in Some
Ways Yet Worth
it in Most Ways Now..:)
